Matching wine and food

 

We suggest you here some recipes and tasting advises to match our wines. Just click on the links below!

*Service temperature is very important , all the aromas of the wine can be released by choosing the right one. White wines and Rosé wines  must be served chilled  (between 10 and 12 degres) and we advise you to serve the reds slightly fresh as well, around 15 degres.
